What if it estabilizes in 12,000 readers or so? Will DC still cancel it?

I felt the Legion started to crash when they first rebooted the series after Crisis on Infinite Earths, I used to blame that all on editorial since they still could've connected Clark to the Legion without Superboy (TAS and Smallville for example) however the true culprit was Levitz who refused to change anything, which therefore led the Pocket Universe and it was downhill from there.

COIE sure brought a lot of problems into Legion continuity, I think Byrne tried to do the best he could with the pocket universe stuff...

The easy thing would have been for Clark to have run-ins every so often with the Legion between the time he left Smallville and saved Lois & the Space-Plane.

Though I'd say that what really did the team in was the whole "Baxter Series" thing that derailed both NTT and Legion.

Probably. Maybe even sooner.

I wonder if sales would be this low if Johns and Meltzer hadn't backstabbed Waid? I guess we'll never know.

DANG!

Wanted to use the classic Legion in Lightning Saga while not giving a s**t that DC was already publishing another version of the team at the moment. And Johns gleefully joined in, since like Meltzer, he doesn't give a f**k about anybody but himself at DC.
